Texas Tech Hall of Famer Dub Malaise Passed Away at 76 Dub Malaise was an inaugural member of the Texas Tech Ring of Honor and is one of the most prolific scorers in Texas Tech history. He passed away Sunday at the age of 76. “We were sad to learn today of the passing of Dub Malaise,” said Rodney Allison, executive director of the Double T Varsity Club. “To this day, Dub remains one of the top basketball players in our history and was a deserving choice for the Ring of Honor. Dub always spoke well of his time as a Red Raider, and it was great every time we were able to welcome him back to campus. He will definitely be missed.”
